Well, a week ago, I began working as a seasonal employee. We're told that it may last until Christmas, but more than likely, we'll be done by around Thanksgiving. I am having some trouble adjusting to the different hours -- 4:15 pm to 12:45 am, and now (tonight) adding an extra hour ('til 1:45am) to keep from being behind schedule. (Saturdays, 12:15-6:15 pm.) I am not all that happy with being just One of the "collective" at work... We all go on our breaks together, all come back and work diligently, we all go to lunch break as a group and leave as a group. There is really not much of any place for any independent actions. We have our task and we're all working to meet the goals that have been set for us.
I keep telling myself that I am doing this for the money and it's just temporary. Having to live off of my savings for most of this year and having no income, I need to be replenishing my bank account rather than depleting it.
Finding enough time to get enough sleep is still a challenge for me.

Disappointment
Today, I had an interview at 9:00 am and I managed to get there on time after only 4-5 hours of sleep. Well, when I arrived, I was told that they had changed their mind and weren't hiring anyone -- they were going to use the personnel that they already had instead of adding a new employee. Imagine my disappointment when I heard this. For a week, I have been hoping that this job would be the one for me.
Well, I need to go back to bed so I can get a nap before going to a seasonal job this afternoon.
I'm feeling very dejected and depressed.
